I've been feeling lately that a new day is dawning
What's the use baby of drinking in the morning
And it's a dark, dark place to be off your face
And with a vacant stare, I've been down there
Ten too many times

On the nights when I can't keep it together
And the days when I can't seem to stay sober
It's you who can pull me from the jaws of the blue
If you would let me, I would do the same for you

I've been losing faith in the whole world around me
What's my place, just tell me where I should be
And it's a dark dark time when you lose your mind
And when nothing's right, I've fought that fight
Ten too many times

On the nights when I can't keep it together
And the days when I can't seem to stay sober
It's you who can pull me from the jaws of the blue
If you would let me, I would do the same for you

Don't make a beast of yourself my son
I want you to be there when my time has come
You can't erase all the things you've done
I'll always be there holding up the sun for you
